Talanas Plan Acoustic Release and Tour

11/11/2013.

(Prog) Talanas will release a five-track acoustic mini-album next month, to be followed by a UK tour as support to The Monolith Deathcult. Talanas are currently recording the half-hour record, titled Asylum, which is a companion piece to 2012′s Corpseflower.

They were inspired to explore the acoustic approach further after penning a one-off composition for The Dark Outside, an event held in Galloway Forest Dark Sky Park by guerrilla music promoter Stuart McLean earlier this year.

Frontman Hal Sinden says: "The mini-album's lyrics weigh heavily on ghostly themes, referring to a collection of British tales such as that of the White Lady of West Wycombe and Jinney Bingham, aka Mother Red Cap.

"We're eager to prove we can still invoke the same atmospheres in music without having to step on the overdrive pedal or scream like a wounded bison." more on this story
